bizarre >Bucatini is spaghetti but thicker and with a hole in it, meaning it absorbs 200 percent more sauce than its thinner, hole-free brethren, due to math. When asked via email for comment on bucatini’s allure, New York City pasta magnate Frank Prisinzano simply told me, “Lol it’s spaghetti with a hole in it. Who doesn’t like that?” In 2018, Bon Appétit deemed it the “best long pasta,” citing its powerful sauce-absorption capabilities and its general slurpiness. Bucatini Head Dan put it thusly: “There’s something about the hole. It feels more luxurious.”

i break my spaghetts in half to make it easier to cook does being long change anything
>>906323 uh i dunno what's out this season an anime movie if anything is coming out maybe ive been checked out so i dunno
rook
hmm promare maybe? I haven't seen it but I think it came out this year
Anno
Promare was last year Her Blue Sky came out on hard copy early this year I believe And the Kimetsu no Yaiba movie should leave theatres eventually ... once it stops printing money at least
rook
oh yeah mugen train would be cool assuming you've seen/read KnY
月
i think there's been a couple lupin movies in the past two years and yeah i saw kny
月

月

PANrela

Anno
Don't listen to PAN Jan he's just jealous he doesn't have your flexibility and ability to adapt to whatever role's neccessary
JaPAN
Pan is a man who knows what he wants and he wants to mash buttons and pray to RNJesus

I merely just want to get my groups filled and be able to do content fast
FormerRei@mobile
>>906457 Yeah but you can't have more than $2000 in the bank whenever your check comes in. Also all of the money I get goes towards my health insurance.
FormerRei@mobile
Stocks count against that limit and so do bonds We had to liquidate the bonds my grandparents got me and put them in a trust that can only be used for education and medical expenses, wwe also put most of my savings in there because it doesn't count against the limit
thanks judging by her condition when they picked her up, i really don't think she's going to make it this time i don't know i certainly hope it's okay
Mahou Shoujo Marsh-chan
That's real rough. I hope it's okay too.
月
depends if they get her into surgery quickly i hope the hospital's not clogged up with covid patients and moving slowly and if it's okay i hope she doesn't get sick while there, which seems like something that could happen
Somehow my bagel order got messed up at some point and ended up with herb butter rather than normal butter Which isn't that bad, a bit weird since it was a cinnamon raisin bagel in the first place, but more than anything I'm just confused how it happened. I wrote out "cinnamon raisin bagel, toasted w/ butter" and I don't know how that got misinterpreted into herb butter.
dang the gym wifi blocked a site i browsed in between sets now moes like the only thing i got and no one even posts here

>you increase your free days by 50% by cutting your work days by 20%. It's not a symmetric exchange. I did the same over the summer (just by using my excess vacation days) and it was a revelation. Highly recommend
man if i ever start a company someday 4 day workweek permanently
Anno
I'd love to work somewhere that does four day workweek Not like I ever do a full five days of work in the first place
whoakun
u can either get 4 day work weeks OR 5 half day work weeks (same pay) (same pay as the 4 day work week that is) what do u choose
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
4 day for me goin in for a half day is not that much better than going in for the full, for me at least
Anno
I guess I'd be happy with either I just need more time to my own agency rather than being stuck somewhere I'm unable to act on it.

whoakun
i can post the map when i fet back to my room i gotta log in with my government cert to see it its probably all red now tho cuz we had like 5 cases lol
Anno
Was kind of an informal question but it looks like my seasonal contract at this job will get extended into a full-time position, which, well , isn't the most exciting for me since I'm not terribly fond of the work. But it does mean income is secure for the foreseeable future.
More than anything it makes me far less uneasy about putting down a decent amount of money on PC parts I was looking at, since I now know I can earn it back
They also really, really need hands in the warehouse at the moment and as tardy as I might be in the mornings it's probably way more economical and a safe bet to keep me on board than hire and train a new person who might not even be as competent as me anyway.
In my defense it's really hard for me to get to sleep and I often wake up in the mornings with little more than a couple hours of sleep. I don't want to be tardy and show up ten minutes late to work but I also am working with like 20% brain power at that point in the day. I try to make up for it by working hard once I'm on shift but I still get critiqued for it.
FormerRei@mobile
I'm not going yo *to be around for the quads (probably) but could someone make sure that the fin doesn't get them?
>>906649 Is there some kind of protocol if you're late? Do you have to ring in or something?
FormerRei@mobile
>>906651 HHe has to do fifty push-ups in front of his supervisor.
Anno
>>906651 Yeah we use a digital online clock-in service. If I'm late my manager can see how late I am, and since I get paid by the literal minute I work (probably more like literal fifteen minute, but I digress), if I'm late, I lose money. Which I feel is totally fine and aside from being told to not be late that's the only ... undeserved? downside there is to me being late. Like the warehouse doesn't operate at such a fine level of efficiency that me being fifteen or even twenty minutes late is really going to upset anything. I accept that if I'm late I don't get paid for the minutes I'm not there. So by the rational account, there isn't really a "problem" with me being late, it's just bad optics for me personally and my manager is kind of a neurotic person who is bothered by it.
>>906750 you're trapped out on the island or something aren't you?
FormerRei@mobile
Any of you ever play any of the Shantae games?

Anno
Got invited to drinking on the store premises after work with some of the co-workers hah hah Though I only had like a shot of whisky since I've had literally nothing to eat in almost thirteen hours. It was fun. I really don't care for the job but the co-workers there are definitely the highlight. After hours like that they all gathr 'round to bitch about our manager.
Anno
What do you do for work?
Anno
Warehousing for a store that deals in audio/visual equipment, along with stuff for professional photography and printing. I'm basically just down in a basement all day opening the boxes of new product that gets delivered to the store and putting the product on shelves. It's usually not awful work, but it's not satisfying or rewarding and I really only can do it full time or not at all, so I'm doing it full-time
whoakun
yeah i have sex so what
Anno
As long as the coworkers are nice it helps. Not everyone can do what they love >>907039 Virgin

Wonder what I'll watch next season Heard there was another yuri show airing, but other than that no cue What are you watching /moo/
Anno
Yuru Camp is getting a season two Along with a new season of Non Non Byori It's a bit tough to know ahead of time what I'll be watching since it depends on what gets to air first and whether it's engaging enough to keep Rika and I entertained.
Anno
Tons of sequels indeed Forgot about re:zero too You only watch gay anime with rikka?
whoakun
only like 2 fags watch anime with rika 1 watches like all animes and another watches a coupe
whoakun
this one time i dtried to talk about a anime they were watching adnd they told me to shut up very rudely for no reason like wtf
Anno
Wow rude Ura Sekai Picnic looks yuri what do you think Maybe we can watch it with rikka
>>907074 We watch mostly anything goes Which is kinda why it depends on what airs first. There's only so much we can watch in one season so if something takes too long to start airing, we're usually too busy to pick it up.
this guy i used to work with messaged me out of the blue not sure if he's looking to REKINDDLE a LOST FRIENDSHIP or if he thinks i can do something for him
>>907088 awh nothing yet. he just sent a text asking how i am and we did actually used to be pretty close at one point. We'd go to the gym together.
I just wonder It's a bit of a CULTURAL DIFFERENCE I've noticed with people whose family are originally from India even if they've been in Australia for a long time
it's like Over there things are much more dependent on a system and network of contacts and favours Who you know makes such a massive difference
Like my dad used to work for the government, right so a few times people have asked me if I can do anything for them about visas Even though like, it's not * wasn't* his department and even if it was, doing special visa favours for a friend would be seen as massively fraudulent and grounds for termination
But over there, that's kind of how it works. You know someone in government, they can get stuff done for you
